Description

Had never seen this before until Derek Santiago's lovely Image of the Day on the 7th July.

This planetary would not look out of place in Abell's catalogue. With Mr Abell missing out on the Soap Bubble, the Soccer Ball and this lovely Pn in Cygnus, I can only think he ignored plates with lots of dust clouds. So a big thanks to Derek for showing us R. Wienberger's discovery.

The dust in the image is from a part of VdB 134, Just below my FoV are a pair of large stars in Cygnus, w1Cyg and w2Cyg. The PNG number in the title didn't work in the mosaic wizard of SGPro.

Rev A: The RGB for the stars. If you look at the image you'll see the small blue central star. Also some streaks have appeared in my calibration.

I've looked at images on the net of VdB 134 and the Pn is readily visible in them. Worth having a look for this if you've imaged the nebula before and not seen We1-10.

Description: It seems my 180s master dark was responsible for the streaks in the images.
This is a re-calibrated RGB but I've added the extracted luminance from the new HOO image Rev H: I liked how it placed the bubble into the RGB. The central blue dwarf star stands out now.

Description: I: Another process of older data, I removed the cloud of dust this Pn lives in and cropped it. Makes it look more like a crystal ball.
